Dunno what you niggers are doing, I downloaded with around 500mbps with PIA all the time using their SOCKS proxy.

And I also get full speeds with my home connection, I have all my machines set to their SOCKS proxy.

They also have many locations, very fast speeds, custom options in the client, port forwarding... I used AirVPN before, because it was the first to offer port forwarding, but compared to PIA, they are piss slow.

BlackVPN is also slow.

PIA at least got options in the client which allowed me to still connect, even if I had a slower connection with the workaround applied.

Well I am using a closed torrent tracker, but even on an old Windows Vista ISO that had around 7 seeders I was able to max my connection out with SOCKS5.

It does take more time to build up the connections with SOCKS, since you are passive, but it works, and you don't have to stay on a VPN all day long.
(Which many sites ban and shit.)
>>
>>54582545
>SOCKS5
ah, the proxy worked fine for me. But was trying to get them with full protection and had ridiculously low speed from behind the VPN.

>>54582545
TorrentFreak is known for promoting sponsoring providers.

from what i gather using PIA proxy SOCKS service basically means that your ISP can know what you're doing if they cared, but the copyright seekers won't get your real ip?

Saying they don't keep logs doesn't mean anything about a US based company, though. The NSA/FBI/CIA could request access to the servers and keep any of their own logs for as long as they have access.

It's an official fucking FBI paper. Of course if I would be a VPN provider I would post this shit everywhere, because it PROVES without a DOUBT that I keep my word.
